@@mercksalot What??, 650 i.Bandit, is the best bike ever, and I ain't even lying.

What???, At Banditaholic meetings, they say talk of Bandit Times to ease the ACHE of no longer being a Mad Banditateer, Mad??, people would say, Take care, I had to say, Not possible, see gap, Bandit finds Gap. Sheet, a Total Biking joy. Coming across a Perfect Storm,,2nd,3rd, 4th gear, regular as clockwork, remember 4th, just before 4,000rpm.BAM!!!, Felt like an industrial catapult fired it off, totally upright, PROPELLED forward,all at the back wheel, arm's limp, body slouched, TIME VORTEX, BUBBLE, Tunnel scenario. At least 58, 59 times more biking joy, than in 84, my nearly new Kawasaki 750turbo, couriered on it, planted fast travel, but almost Certain, turbo wouldn't do over 80 mph, before the red line, in 2nd gear, Bandit 650 i., Easy Peasy, front wheel, down, at all times, in 2nd, but sheet!!!, Flew forward, SPECTACULAR. 4th gear?, 6,500rpm. said 92 mph, Actual 89 mph, red lines at 12,000, WHAT, no what NO, YES, BEST BIKE EVER, AND I'm not even lying. Prof.Bandit650 i.out.

Nah, the superwide angle / fisheye effect on GoPro makes stuff look a lot closer than it is.

Donald Duck I’ve upgraded to a Daytona now which is faster, but I do miss this bike. It was a right hoot to ride on track!

kangaroop this is a 2011 and I believe they are geared differently, but no, it’s accurate, I promise. Does (or did, she’s gone now) have the arrow cans, baffles removed and remap to suit though, which definitely gave it a bit of extra poke

Offered to at the time, but never materialised.

Luke Pas Haha, cheers. Lots of reasons. They're a very easy and confidence inspiring bike to ride. They're light weight and well balanced meaning late braking and cornering is easier. And they're a bit low on power compared to a lot of super sports so they don't try and bite you and high side in corners. You can easily exit a corner on 100% throttle without worry. I've just about out grown mine now and wanting more power but I can't recommend them enough as a first road or track bike. They upset a lot of higher powered and higher spec bikes.

Mph ;)

Yeah, i have a little bluetooth OBD reader (OBDLink MxWifi) that plugs in under the seat, and connects to my phone (running an app called TrackAddict) to do the logging via bluetooth. I then mix the data on the phone with the GoPro video using software called RaceRender (same company as the TrackAddict app) on a PC. Did you spot yourself at 4:30 ish? If i remember correct we were side by side going up Park Straight for a bit. The Daytona has a fair bit more punch than mine, so i only got ahead under braking at the end. Was a good day out after the morning rain dried up!

davesimm cool. Got trackaddict and racerender myself but never tried recording any ecu data. Will have to give it a go. Well spotted at 4:30 I had a flick through trying to find myself , thanks for pointing that out

It's an app called TrackAddict for the iphone that sits on my handlebars. In my later video (at Cadwell Park) i also now have an obd reader that plugs into the bike and connects back to the app over bluetooth. Gives things like revs, throttle position etc too. You then mix it all together with video from the GoPro using the RaceRender software on a PC.

Yeah, that was quite a bad wide line. The camber of the track throws you off to the right if you enter that corner wrong too. Hence on other laps i'm tucked to the left as much as poss!

You think such a small power lines could effect the drone ?
